Crystal chrysanthemum is best known for every occasion of spring and Tet holidays. To get the beautiful crystal chrysanthemum blooming on the occasion of Tet holidays requires a quite long process of planting and caring. Here is the process to plant and care for crystal chrysanthemum to bloom on the occasion of Tet.

After planting crystal chrysanthemum for about a week, lights are hung for the flowers for about a month. And every two beds of flower, people should hang a row of light with the most suitable average height being about 1m.

Farmers care for chrysanthemums all day and night. Each year, they only expect to make a profit from them on the occasion of Tet

When the chrysanthemum reaches the height of 20 - 30 cm, farmers plug in the poles to make trellis to keep the chrysanthemum straight up. As the chrysanthemum grows, the net is gradually raised according to its height

And when the spring comes, the crystal chrysanthemum will appear on every street to welcome a new spring with many families.

Dishes that instantly signal “Hue Tet is coming”

In Hue, the traditional Lunar New Year “Tet” does not arrive with fanfare. It begins quietly in the kitchen, from a pot of banh tet (a cylindrical sticky rice cake with mung beans and pork) glowing over the fire, from the warm scent of ginger, from a jar of mixed pickled vegetables.
